German daily Bild revealed that the 38-year old goalie is still considering retirement but decided to postpone his decision until after the Euro 2008 finals.

"Yes, if I choose to keep playing, then I can imagine playing for Stuttgart. They are an established name in the Bundesliga," the veteran keeper told Bild.

Lehmann will be a free agent this summer as he refused to extend his stay at the Emirates after losing his place in Arsene Wenger's starting lineup.

Stuttgart's keeper Raphael Schafer, who joined the club from Nuremberg, failed to make a good impact as he conceded 55 goals this season.

Dortmund have also been interested in signing the Mannschaft number one.
